Everyday is a day of thankgiving. Psalms 100
Let us now look at what the Bible says about the word “thanksgiving! The Biblical meaning of the word “thanksgiving” is not something you do, it is not something that you say only when something is done for you, or an impromptu expression of thanks for some good deed done, or good that has come our way. The biblical concept of the word “thanksgiving” does not depend on something one has or has received. This word has nothing to do with “outward” circumstances, but rather, has to do with one’s spiritual attitude toward life by faith, it’s a heart thing. Being thankful is an attitude of gratitude and one of the worst sins in the world today is the sin of ingratitude. Paul declared, in Philippians 4:11-13, 11 Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content. 12 I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: everywhere and in all things, I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need. 13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me. What he is saying is that no matter what is happing to him he is grateful, because he knows that God will work it out for his good, and he will continue trusting God. He knows that nothing can happen unless God orchestrates or allows, be thankful because it’s God’s will. Paul then goes on to say in Hebrews Hebrews 13:5 Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have. Trusting God allows us to have a heart of thanksgiving..
